Workout #505 is done! 1 hour and 40 minutes on weights working chest and back and a combined 45 minutes of cardio done between the warm up and the finisher for a total of 10.10 miles peddled on the stationary bike. I got a liiiiiiitle carried away when I was working out. What can I say... I was feeling it. And I haven’t even had any carbs today. 😂 My back is feeling super strong. 💪🏼😏 Chest... meh. It’s getting there. I’m not too worried about it though. Just focusing on my form. That’s more important to me. Now off to feed my face and my gainz. Wooooo!!! 🙌🏼 #FitnessLife#SheLifts#FitBadassInProgress#ChestDay#BecauseBoobs#BackDay#BabyGotBackGainz#TeamGrowth#pillarsofgrowth🤔💪🔮

Nothing better than a bacon, egg and avocado salad with a fatty Cesar, ranch or blue cheese dressing! .

I like to use salads for balance but also as a way to get delicious fats that I enjoy like bacon, eggs and avocado. I’ve never been a huge salad for a meal kind of guy, but when you fatten it up a bit, it is very satisfying. .

If you’re looking for a change up and don’t currently incorporate salads, keep this combo in mind. It’s perfect to take for lunch or as a meal prepped dinner. .

Did anyone else get LESS summer bod ready over spring break or was it just me?? 😅 NYC was filled with lots of meatballs, pizza, & sweets. Maybe if I would’ve seen myself in a swim suit instead of a coat I wouldn’t have chowed down so hard lololol. Anyways, after getting over my jet lag I finally made it to the gym today & got in a badass workout! ••••••••••LEGS•••••••••
1) 3x5 front squat x shoulder press combo at the squat rack (10s on each side).
2) 3x8 max weight box squats at squat rack (went up to 160lbs).
3) 3x8 box squats at squat rack (45s each side).
4) 3x5 elevated DL’s.
5) 3x5 RDL’s.
& to finish off: 25 min of sprints/high elevation speed walk on the treadmill😬👏🏻 Very proud that I killed it my first day back!!

Video 155: 18.4 broke my spine -
Hip flexor or psoas muscle can be the main culprit here as over hinging all weekend has pissed this muscle off
-
A few stretches to attempt to alleviate this would be
-
•Seal Pose
•spider man pose
•butterfly stretch
•pigeon pose
Feel free to do extra time in any pose but make sure to do each minimum of 1 minute

Someday, this will all make sense. Someday you’ll be able to look back and see how things slowly fell into place. I had a period of time in my life where I was depressed, confused, lonely, hurt, and questioning why the world was this way. It’s like God wanted to rain down on me and throw a bunch of problems at me at once. It was very hard to try to see the light at the end of the tunnel but here we are now, still alive, still living life, still doing what I love. I remember I was having a rough day and got really anxious at work and @briannamarybelle came over and gave me a hug and I was upset and asking her why life was hard sometimes and she said told me about her life, what she’s been through and how she got here now. She finished it off by saying “I truly believe that everything in life happens for a reason” and since then I’ve really tried hard to adapt that attitude as well.
So now I try to see things a little differently, where people change so you can learn to let go, things go wrong so you can so can appreciate them when they’re right and sometimes things that you thought were important to you fall apart but it’s simply so better things can fall together.
Never lose hope, keep faith, stay strong and listen, you, keep that head up, momma didn’t raise no bish✌️
Happy Monday y’all❤️

My first voiceover !!! LOLOL . Instead of bombarding you with a long caption this time i just put it in the video 😜 Trust me this looks like cake but do it 10 times then come talk 💩😂 #kaiyafit (people with no gym membership you now have 0 excuses)

Everyday is a chance to get better or not.. the efforts are NOT EQUAL.. & the results are just as drastic.. chose wisely.. I overheard someone blaming another for their lack of support on the reasons THEY didn't show up.. LET ME BE CLEAR.. THIS IS YOUR JOURNEY, VICTORY, or defeat.. YOUR RESPONSIBILITY ALONE.. If no one comes with you or works out when you do.. YOU MUST do anything necessary.... & STOP the BLAME GAME.. DEFEAT or BE DEFEATED #gymlife#fitness over EVERYTHING #healthfirst#fitnesslife
